【1895 Baguashan Anti-Japanese Taiwan Defense Memorial Hall】A past woven with blood and tears On August 1, 1894, the Qing government and the Japanese government officially went to war over the issue of Korea. According to statistics, the Qing government dispatched 600,000 troops, while Japan sent 240,000 soldiers. The two countries fought a shocking land and naval battle along the Yalu River and the Yellow Sea of China. Due to outdated equipment and insufficient training, the once-proud Beiyang Fleet and thirty-five army battalions were routed from the start of the engagement, suffering heavy casualties. This conflict is known in history as the First Sino-Japanese War.
